strangetomato | Maxis Taste Dare 010: Formal makeover

It's been a while since I actually participated in one of the

maxis_taste dares (I did the makeover for Goopy and Sandy, but I never did get around to posting it). This one ties in nicely with my Christmasy mood, so I decided to go for it.

The challenge was to make over a couple (same sex apparently needing an opposite sex "chaperone" or some such thing :P), and I decided to go with a platonic couple for my entry. And I threw another guy into the mix, just 'cause. I've been happily playing around with Photoshop, so these images are screencapped and ~sparkly~ and I left them in the widescreen format of my monitor.

And it has FRANCES, so what are you waiting for?

For my couple, I chose Beau and Lucy, because there's no better date than your BFF. I went to the prom with mine, so I know this from experience, okay? The event is a Christmas party, as you can see.

Lucy is wearing a lovely frock from the Sims 2 Store Asian fusion collection (if you haven't check it out yet, head on over to MATY - some of the dresses are WAY above par for the store), and Beau rocks a recolour of a suit from Glamour Life that is easily my favourite male formal attire.

These two really know how to get the party started.

(And check out those frightening nutcrackers!)

Frances isn't quite sure what to think of it.

He's also sporting a recolour of my favourite suit, in an appropriately dark colour. He's such a black/blue/purple guy, isn't he? Is he a "winter"?

Frances: *needs to drink more before he'll dance like that, thankyouverymuch*

Frances: Yes, indeed...

(Beau's breakdancing, btw. It's from AL.)

Wait... did he just do what I think he did? *snicker* Lordy, the punch has to be spiked, because Frances just crushed the cup on his head! I just missed getting a pic of it.
